It’s easy to walk past the Bristol Harbour Hotel without realising what’s inside. As the name suggests, the old Lloyds Bank building is home to a hotel, restaurant, cocktail bar, event space and spa. I was lucky enough to visit not once, but twice […]
If there’s ever a time to treat yourself to a new ‘do’, it’s definitely Christmas time. No wonder the hairdressers get booked up so far in advance, – when there’s Christmas parties and drinks and gatherings, naturally everybody wants to look their best. I […]
It’s December the first, which means one thing…it’s finally acceptable to be celebrating Christmas now! I usually wait until December to crack open the Baileys, mince pies and mulled wine but this year I started extra early, whoops… December […]
I’ve recently seen a lot of bloggers post about feeling unmotivated or uninspired when there is so much replicate content out there – or new, younger bloggers arriving on the scene, taking all of the opportunities. As a blogger who runs my site purely […]
It’s been a while since I published a ‘What I’m reading this month’ post – I fell off the bandwagon and needed some inspo when it came to burying my head in a good book. A trip to Waterstones was all I needed, and on my latest visit I picked up […]

It was five years ago I visited New York for the first time, and I can still remember the exact moment I fell in love. We had boarded a bus from New Jersey which travelled under the Lincoln Tunnel and dropped us off at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, […]
It’s strange to think that when this post goes live, I will be living it up in (hopefully) sunny New York, my roll necks, blankets and candles far from my mind! However, when I get back – the weather will be colder, the nights will be darker and it will […]
It’s a running joke between friends that I am pastier than Snow White – and up until fairly recently I chose to grin and bear it when it came to stripping off and showing off my skin in the sun. I don’t tan either so sunbathing does […]
